ALS SUMMER CAMP

The ALS Association, Massachusetts Chapter is a proud sponsor of Camp
HLC (Hope Loves Company), and is excited to help bring this weekend
retreat to Massachusetts for the second year!

Camp HLC is a free 3-day overnight retreat for children and young
adults who have/had a parent or grandparent living with ALS. It will be
held on August 17-19, 2018 at the Frank A. Day YMCA Camp, 125 South Pond
East Brookfield, MA

Campers have the opportunity to have fun, to be challenged through
team building exercises and new adventures, while meeting and making new
friends. All of the children and young adults (ages 8 to 21 years old)
understand the challenges of being a caregiver to a person living with
ALS.

Camp HLC is provided free to our ALS families for Hope Love Company
and The ALS Association, Massachusetts Chapter. All meals and activities
are included. In addition to hiking, canoeing and bonfires, campers
will experience art therapy, meditation, join group discussions and to
learn new coping skills. For the best camp experience, children under
the age of 12 years old must attend with an adult family member or adult
chaperone.

This is a wonderful and unique experience to help your children and
grandchildren feel embraced, supported and celebrated while gaining
resources!
